Peggy told wonderful tales of her childhood, especially about the one of the horse she and her siblings played with. Hide and seek, believe it or not. The horse loved chicken sandwiches, but it had to be white meat or he would turn it down. Peggy enjoyed life. She will be missed by her family and friends.
